The female master reported to the palace master, the master is favored by the road

Zi'an looked at the dishes on the table and commented seriously: "Sister, these four dishes are pretty good, right?"

Linglong nodded, put another Buddha Jumps Over the Wall into Zi'an's bowl, and said, "Well, then, An'an, eat it quickly, or it will get cold later."

An An's evaluation was okay, so these dishes were considered very good here. In this way, she could start working on the restaurant.

Zi'an nodded, thinking that he had something to say to Linglong, so he picked up a shrimp dumpling for her with his own chopsticks and said softly, "Sister, you've been busy all day and you're tired. Eat more."

While Linglong was having a great time, there were undercurrents in the Lingdu Palace.

In the magnificent hall, the atmosphere was solemn and dignified. A woman in black was kneeling on the cold golden bricks, not daring to breathe, maintaining the same posture, facing the dark red figure who was reading a letter behind the desk above.

Under the warm yellow candlelight, the woman's dark red phoenix gown with gold thread set off her cool and beautiful eyes, making her look even more dignified and majestic. Her black hair mixed with silver threads was tied up with a gold-thread glazed auspicious cloud hairpin, showing her aloof and cold facial features, which were sharp and intimidating.

She put down the letter with her slender and distinct fingertips, raised her eyes, her pair of phoenix eyes were deep and sharp, and her thin lips slightly parted: "Ji Yue, what do you think of these two people who look 80% like me?"

She had been investigating this person for 17 years but had no news of him. Recently, when she was about to make a big move, he showed up! She really didn't give up.

"Slave, I dare not speak nonsense."

The woman raised the corners of her lips and leaned lazily back on the phoenix chair. Her cold and beautiful facial features softened instantly, and the small red mole on the left side of her nose suddenly became strange and unusual.

His eyes turned around the embarrassed figure below, and he said calmly: "Make arrangements. I want to go on a private visit in disguise, and you come with me."

It took less than a day to get from Qingshan Town to Lingdu, with no time to rest. No wonder he was in such a mess.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Ji Yue breathed a sigh of relief, kowtowed, stood up, took a few steps back, turned around and walked away.

As the gold-painted carved wooden door closed, the air pressure in the imperial study dropped suddenly, and the gentle expression on the woman's face disappeared completely.

She raised her hand and pulled out the hairpin from her hair. Her hair fell down like a waterfall. The woman stroked the gold-threaded glazed hairpin in her hand. Her eyes were filled with pain. She murmured, "Yu'er, please don't joke with me, okay?"

The gentle murmurs became hoarse, and when she thought of the deceased mother and father written in the letter, her heart ached so much that she felt like suffocating.

She couldn't believe that her Yu'er would have the heart to abandon their child and leave like that.

The woman closed her eyes, a tear slid down her cheek, and her fingertips gently stroked the hairpin: "Yu'er, wait for me, I will find you, and then you can beat me and scold me however you want."

……

Peach Blossom Village.

"Sister, take a look at the names of these slaves. Do you want to change any of them?"

Linglong, who was carefully looking at Zi'an's planning map at the desk, turned her head when she heard the voice.

The young man in blue walked towards her carrying a large bundle in one hand and a folded paper in the other.

Seeing this, Linglong put down the brush in her hand, quickly stepped forward to take the bundle from Zi'an, and asked, "Have you finished packing?"

"And the ingredients in the kitchen." Zi'an followed Linglong to the desk, handed the letter in his hand to Linglong and said, "Sister, we won't be back?"

Linglong put the bundle into the space, pulled the boy to the stool, took the letter from his hand, bent down and kissed him on the lips.

"I will come back, but this place will become a passing cloud, buried underground forever." After rubbing Zi'an's head, Linglong stood up and said, "An'an, I changed a few places in the layout of the bookstore, take a look."

Even if it was just a simple bookstore, she didn't want any accidents to happen.

After hearing this, Zi'an's attention was diverted. He leaned over and carefully picked up the rice paper on the table to read it.

The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she lowered her eyes and opened the paper in her hand.

When the eye-catching row of "Mu" characters appeared in Linglong's eyes, an unexpected smile flashed across her eyes.

His sight fell on the most abrupt words 'Hong Yu' and he leaned lazily against the table. He put the papers in his hand into the space and tilted his head to look at the boy who was quietly lowering his eyes beside him.

Zi'an frowned and said, "Sister, can anyone go in from here..." As he looked up, he met the exquisite and cold eyes.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

Her delicate fingertips brushed across the boy's smooth cheek, "An An, is it safe to leave him by your side?"

Zi'an was stunned for a moment, then remembered that he didn't change Hongyu's name from what he just called her. His eyebrows curved and the corners of his lips raised in a gentle smile.

Unexpectedly, Linglong actually knew him so well.

He put down the drawing in his hand, turned around, and put his arms around the slender waist of the woman next to him.

"Sister, don't worry. I can keep dangerous things by my side, so this thing is not a threat to me."

Her delicate fingers pinched the back of the boy's neck, and her eyes were full of interest.

"Oh? Then An An had the confidence to stay with me in the beginning."

Zi'an's body stiffened. Digging a hole and burying himself, is that feasible?!

When he first followed the old lady to Taohua Village, he really thought he could control the old lady and a sickly woman! But there are always unexpected events, and he really encountered this unexpected event.

The more he thought about it, the more Zi'an buried his head, as if this way Linglong would not blame him.

Linglong lowered her eyes and looked at the shy little boy, thinking that if she was a quilt, Zi'an would probably bury himself inside her!

Thinking of this, the smile in Linglong's eyes became more intense. She glanced at the drawings on the table and said clearly: "An An, among these buildings, this is your residence and it cannot be changed."

Unexpectedly, Zi'an could see the secret from a simple picture!

She moved a small building on the blueprint. If someone didn't understand the formation, they wouldn't be able to enter the building.

It seems that the world is about to undergo earth-shaking changes.

Hearing this, Zi'an's thoughts returned to the drawing he had just seen. His almond-shaped eyes lit up and he pulled his head away from Linglong.

"Sister, can you teach me?"

He had only seen such magical techniques in the Jun family, one of the four hidden families in Zhongzhou, but it was far less shocking than what Linglong could show on paper! !

Facing Zi'an's hopeful eyes, Linglong nodded: "Okay, but can you learn so many things?"

Hearing Linglong's words of pampering him as a child again, he smiled and said, "Sister, I'm very interested. Can I try it?"

Since Linglong treats him as a child, then he is a child and he is happy to be spoiled.

The soft and coquettish words softened Linglong's heart, "Okay, I'll teach you when An An gets better."

Zi'an happily leaned his head against her exquisite waist and abdomen again, "Sister, you are so good to Zi'an."

"Then An An will be good."

Linglong stroked Zian's hair and said, "Go and rest for a while. You may not be able to sleep later."
